How to brighten and protect Louis Vuitton canvas

[@Mrssandypeterson]

This is my first video that I’ve seen of yours. You did a great job!! No drama - just direct and straight to the point. Thank you!!

[@berniefernando277]

Thank you. I will try this.

[@AnneTherese.]

“Don’t be afraid of your bag.” 😂 I love that!

[@sergienater534]

I tried this on my Louis Vuitton bags and I am very happy to say that this method has worked so well on my bags!! My Louis Vuitton discovery backpack PM bag looks brand new again! It does not grease the bag at all my bag is nice and shiny!! And it gave it a nice clean as well! The canvas is so shiny like the day I brought it 2 years ago! Before I did this I pre cleaned my bag by using the LA totally awesome spray Diluted with water and I wiped it off with a non alcoholic baby wipe! It really gives it the best clean and shine!! I just want to say think you for sharing this bro and making this video! Sharing the knowledge and the tips on how to do this method if you didn’t make this video I would have never known to do this! Thank you again bro I appreciate it! I’m just so happy this has worked for me and my bag looks so clean and shiny again like brand new! 🙌😊

Not only is he cute but so informative!!! Thank you!!

[@can8492]

You are just too smart ,! I found out this trick several years ago when buying vintage LV . I love cleaning and conditioning them . Somehow it has turned into a very therapeutic hobby . The only thing I hate is cleaning sticky pockets 😜. Love your videos and can’t wait for next one !!!

[@lovelyhome9459]

Hi, Candy, did you figure out how to clean the interior of the purses throughly? I found that’s the hardest part to clean if you cannot put it into the water. After used for a while, the interior material stinks

[@shirlingang9658]

Can you share tips on cleaning sticky pockets? Still trying to find a way

[@sheliarl6134]

OMG. YOU are amazing! I’m seriously sitting on my floor cleaning every piece of vintage LV in my collection with Armor All!!! Go you Smart One❤️👍🏻

[@jupitergrls]

Well there you go! And I've been sitting here for the longest time racking my brain over which product would be the right one (if I could find it) to brighten the canvas on my speedy without causing any damage! Little did I realize it was sitting on my husband's workbench the whole time! Thank You So Much! for this video.

[@juneyj7134]

New British fan here... you’ve inspired me to buy a battered preloved bag from eBay and try to restore it 👌💕

[@ruthlessx]

How'd it go?

[@angelahsien6116]

Can’t wait to order the product you recommend! I finally found the answer to prevent Lious Vuitton Canvas bag. I search this question on a lot of Chinese Internet platforms, but I didn't find any answer on them. Thank God that I found this video, appreciate your sharing, I am already your follower! Looking forward to seeing your other sharing!

[@KarenReadsTaillight]

You're awesome! I just tried it with my faded canvas on my Speedy 30 (which I received as a gift about 11 years ago) and it totally brought it back to life!! Thank you!

[@laurag3469]

Ok. Now, the bag is really old like from the 80s?? I am cracking up. Honey, I graduated high school in 1980!! Love the video anyway. You are a hoot and your personality is just sunshine! Keep up the videos!

[@jenniferleever9482]

Hi! I have a LV Speedy in my closet that I haven’t used since the 80s! You are inspiring me to get that baby out and get it looking nice again, and using it! I already watched your leather condition/clean video, and I’m going to watch your brass and lock shining/polishing one next. Question: if I don’t ever plan to sell this bag, would you recommend putting a strap on it? I watched a video, just before I found yours, where a lady had put really nice rivets on each side of her Speedy, and attached a strap. I really only use crossbody and shoulder bags, now that I’m in my 50s! What do you think? And do you ever refurbish LV straps and resell them? Thanks again for your great videos!

[@missywelch6215]

I love all Your videos.

[@aquao8b]

You're so sweet I love watching you and I appreciate your videos.

[@sheliae6307]

Thanks so much for this simple way to keep my bag nice looking.

[@SEFenno]

I am a new subscriber...love your videos! Maybe you could do a video on how you clean the inside lining of your LV items? What do you do to eliminate or prevent odors? How do you store your items to best keep their shape? Lastly, since you use apple leather conditioner...do you use the apple guard spray after the item is clean to protect the leather?

[@hunterdriear4405]

S.E. Fenno all wonderful questions and great video ideas! I will be making videos for all of those shortly. For the last question, the answers is no. I usually sell my bags and I don’t want to make that decision for someone. However, Apple guard does work! It just prevents any further patina which some people don’t like. 100% personal preference!

[@SEFenno]

Hunter Driear thanks for replying so quickly!😊 What is your personal preference on apple guard protectant and limiting patina for the bags you keep? Does it make cleaning them in the future more difficult?

[@hunterdriear4405]

S.E. Fenno well, it depends on the bag. If the bag is newer I like to let it patina until I am happy with it’s glow. If it’s old and it’s already the color I want, I make sure it’s clean and then apple guard is a good option. As far as cleaning in the future, it makes it impossible because the leather is protected. This should mean, however, that it won’t need cleaned in the first place.

[@raquelgagliano712]

Very informative! Love your video! If I have to clean my entire bag, that is, including the hardwares, what order should I follow?

[@joycegarrett7482]

[@fionahunter72]

I bought this on your recommendation and have used it on my 15 year old bag . . . Worked a treat . . Thank you :) how often do you treat your canvas ? Thanks from the UK !

[@sandrastudebaker7]

I'm not the creator of this video, just a person watching it and reading comments. Before putting the ArmorAll on, i would first clean your Monogram canvas with Water wipes (not to be confused with baby wipes). These can be purchased online and are great for both Canvas AND your Vachetta leather. I have never used Armorall on a bag, but he definitely is correct, the canvas is simply 'canvas' - you might even check into Sonax brand - it's what i use and is a high end brand that i use to shine and protect the interior of my Mercedes. (does the same as Armorall, just w/ better ingredients).

[@marilynrivera4759]

I love your videos! Very helpful, thanks!

[@maryaliceholguin3807]

Thank you for your videos. I’m going to try cleaning the canvas and leather now. Just bought saddle soap now looking for leather protector and going to auto parts store. Lol thanks again!

[@cindylee2146]

I love your informative videos on caring for your Preloved Louis Vuitton. Can the Armor All Protectant be used on the Damier Azur canvas? Thank you!!

[@meghanmarker2012]

Looking for the same info!

[@jenniferruvalcaba2788]

Great video, I would look into 303 Aerospace Protectant instead of Armor All if you get the chance to. All the car guys I know with vintage cars swear by it for their dashes and any plastic interior, it's a good UV protectant that you can find at some autopart stores if not online. Apparently Armor All can dry out the plastic over time 🤷 just a suggestion if you want to do more research . Thanks again 😊

[@emmabarac8188]

I’d like to know how to clean the cotton fabric interior of a LV bag, so maybe post of video of that 😊

[@RaqReviews]

Great video. Thanks for sharing 💕

[@joyagym7883]

Great videos! Just watched all of them and tried to piece together the chronological order of things. Would this roughly be correct for an old Keepall that's never been cleaned or conditioned? 1) Condition leather 2) Baby wipe canvas? (Rest) 3) Armorall 4) Brasso 5) Saddle soap + Baby Wipe (Rest) 6) Condition Will the Armorall actually clean the canvas? Or should I go over it first with a baby wipe/damp cloth? Thanks for your advice! Watched loads of videos and yours were by far the most informative and straightforward.

[@jackiethrifts]

could i use the kiwi saddle soap on an alcohol free baby wipe before the protectant on lv canvas? would that be okay or stick to just the armorall protectant? i just watched one of your videos where you were using the kiwi saddle soap to clean the epi leather so i wondered if it was okay. thank you for all the tips and help! i love your lv group too!!

[@andchildren]

I would not use saddle soap on canvas bc it’s meant for cleaning leather only. The canvas is basically coated in plastic which is why the armor all is recommended

[@tiffanyrobertson4398]

Thanks for this video. They have a ultra shine protectant as well . Would u Recommend the shine one or just the original?

[@ashagencyamsterdam4173]

Is there an alternative for the protactant spray? They are not for sale here? Can you also apply conditioner to vanvas after cleaning?

[@elizabethhuerta8226]

Hi! Thank you for sharing your videos. I have a black Louise Chain bag that is a bit beat up. I really liked the videos you’ve posted & I’ve been trying to find other videos for this specific bag but I don’t seem to have any luck. Can you share a video or give me some tips on how to repair/clean the calfskin, restore the edge of the bag & also - I know scratches on the metallic oversized LV magnetic lock can get scratches overtime but any tips on how to make them appear less? I really love this bag but Ive had it a few years now. I’d really appreciate any tips!

[@hunterdriear4405]

Elizabeth Hernandez calfskin is really pretty easy! Since it’s real leather, you treat it just like the Vachetta. To clean and condition it watch my vachetta cleaning video and use the same products. Especially the conditioner, it will feel so nice! The edges can be fixed with edge dye which I explain in another video with an epi leather bag. I shine up my hardware with brasso (I explain that in my epi leather video) but I plan on making a video about that soon.

[@elizabethhuerta8226]

Hunter Driear thank you for your response! I’ve put in an order of the suggestions! I hope to achieve the same results you have!

This an old video but do you by any chance have knowledge on cleaning the canvas on multicolor monogram canvas?

I will definitely use your tips for sprucing up the leather as that is where the age is seen.

[@Glasspider360]

You should deff try acrylic paint from a hobby store. They have the matching multicolor acrylic paints, you just have to have a good eye on scouting them out.

[@imsupahmiah]

It makes sense because they used that to expensive cars so why not at bag also with the same leather quality right?.❤

[@cristetalontok1728]

Hi, do you also apply the leather conditioner after Armorall Protectant?

[@Djlv471]

I had a question recently I just received a brand new Damien ebeene Odeon tote bag and the outside of the canvas feels really rubbery. Is that normal Just wanted to know if you had any ideas thank you so much. It’s strange because all of my other canvas feels kind of like more constrictive and not so soft but this one’s like almost soft, super extra buttery, soft and rubbery let me know any ideas. Thank you so much.

[@jeffandkatie5391]

Hi Hunter, I was wondering if you can help me please? I have a new Louis Vuitton bag , not treated with anything. I got small stains on the handles. Are baby wipes the best to use? I thought you need not to treat it ?

Could you use the armor all wipes instead of the spray?

Apparently you can I just watched another video in German and she used the wipes

[@miadelatorre3343]

Does this method soften a vintage bag that is a bit stiff?

Would it be ideal to use on Damier Azur? I have a new pochette and I want to protect it from color transfer and I’m thinking would this give that extra layer of protection and make it easier to remove the color transfer?

Thanks for the video. I have recently tried to clean the canvas with the leather cleaner. To my horror, the LV prints lighten, to the extend that it is 70% gone. Is this any suggestion to restore it. Will this spray helps?

[@hunterdriear4405]

W Y unfortunately once the print is gone, there is nothing else you can do to get it back. This spray should protect it and help prevent future damage
